## Resource

Royal Mail’s delivery failures are under fire as the government calls it “not good enough,” with Ofcom launching an investigation into missed first and second class targets. But customers may be in luck—compensation rules kick in if mail is delayed too long, with thresholds varying by service type. Despite a £500 million investment and a new improvement plan, Royal Mail still fell short last year, delivering only 75% of first-class mail on time, forcing a major efficiency overhaul after decades of decline.
